🚨SCOOP: Last minute negotiations between Banking Committee Republicans and Democrats over multiple amendments were brokered this morning in an effort to secure bipartisan support for today’s vote on the Clarity Act, multiple sources tell me.
However, the compromise came at the cost of a specific change to a @SenLummis amendment that removed language from Section 301 of the bill referencing the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act (BRCA), disappointing some DeFi advocates who say the move could strip out critical protections for software developers as the bill moves forward.
Notably, Senator @MarkWarner (D-VA) did not vote to advance the bill despite positively referencing the changes during the markup.
That said, Senator @berniemoreno said during the hearing that there’s still work to be done on Section 301, suggesting discussions will continue in the coming weeks as @BankingGOP and @SenateAg work to merge the texts ahead of a full Senate vote.
